Using confidence interval concepts, it is found that the interval estimate is (0.274, 0.364), and it means that we are x% sure(considering the confidence level) that the proportion of all voters in the city that plan to vote for the Democratic candidate is between these two values.

<h3>What is a confidence interval?</h3>

It is given by the <u>sample proportion plus/minus the margin of error</u>, and a x% confidence interval means that we are x% sure the population proportion is in the interval.

134 of 420 randomly chosen likely voters indicated that they planned to vote for the Democratic candidate, hence:

p = 134/420 = 0.319

The margin of error for the statistic is 0.045, hence:

0.319 - 0.045 = 0.274

0.319 + 0.045 = 0.364

The interval estimate is (0.274, 0.364), and it means that we are x% sure(considering the confidence level) that the proportion of all voters in the city that plan to vote for the Democratic candidate is between these two values.

Dana walks 3/4 miles in 1/4 hours. What is dana's walking rate in miles per hour?
Harman [31]

Dana’s waking rate in miles per hour is 3 mph.

I did 3/4 x 4 = 3 because she walked 1/4 a mile and I needed to figure out the miles per one whole hour.

I hope this made sense and helped you.
